Brought to Europe to witness the wedding of Jacques and Elodie, I decided to pay visit after to my cousin Gerhard, his wife, Kristina, and their two children, Miriam and Robin. I hadn't seen them in six years, and it was wonderful to spend some time with them again.

In addition, southern Germany has beautiful, beautiful countryside and the food is AMAZING. I gorged myself on Schnitzel, Spaetzle, Wurst, Pizza (italian style), Broetchen, Marmalade, Quark, Brezel, and Kartoffelsalat, and I drank my share of Radler. So yummi!
